Abbotsford PD – Craigslist Cell Phone Robberies

Abbotsford – The Abbotsford Police Department has received three very similar reports concerning cell phone robberies since February 23, 2016. In all three cases, an iPhone 6 was offered for sale through a Craigslist advertisement. Meetings were arranged with the sellers between the hours of 2:15 pm and 6:00 pm and during all three meetings the victims were pepper sprayed by two suspects and had their phones stolen.
